  • How do I stop the "Better Privacy" help page coming up every time I open Firefox and while browsing?

    The "Better Privacy" help page opens as a separate tab every time I open Firefox. I close it, but it keeps coming back, usually when I go to another site (by clicking a link or using a bookmark) and at seemingly random intervals while I'm browsing.
    chrome://bprivacy/content/BetterPrivacy.html
    I'm sure it's not malware, but it's driving me mad. Is there no way to block this annoyance?
    I don't want to disable Better Privacy, but I'm often tempted to do so.
    I'm using (Linux) Ubuntu 12.04, which comes with Firefox 18.0.2.

    Check the Home page setting:
    *Edit > Preferences > General > Startup: Home page
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox
    If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

  • How do I stop one extra tab from opening every time I start Firefox?

    Every time I open Firefox, my Yahoo homepage opens, but an additional page also opens which has a variety of website thumbnails and nothing else on that page.
    In my Options, I have ONLY www.yahoo.com selected as my homepage, so only ONE page should be opening every time I start Firefox.
    However, no matter what I do, this second page continues to open every time. It's very irritating, as half the time I've already begun to enter data into my homepage, then the second page pops up and switches to that and I'm typing on that page.
    Please advise.

    @jscher2000
    Thank you!! That fixed the problem. The only add-ons I have are for my anti-virus software WebRoot, but somehow I must have installed Speed Dial without realizing it.
    That fixed the problem. Greatly appreciated!!

    After the 5.0 upgrade I cannot get rid of the welcome to firefox 5.0 home page on the browser start up. It has happened in the past with other upgrades but goes away after the first initial run. Any help on this?

  • I installed Firefox 29.01 but two pages keep popping up, my home page and the what's new in Firefox page. How do I stop the What's New page from popping up?

    I installed Firefox 29.01 but every time I open it my home opens and so does the What's new in Firefox page. I want to disable the What's New page and only want the home page to open up but everytime I start Firefox both pages open up.

    hello, this might happen when firefox is not able to properly save preferences in its profile folder. please try this: Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and then click help [[Image:Help-29]] > troubleshooting information > profile folder - "show folder". then a new window will open up. in this window look out for a file named '''user.js''' (it might be used to overwrite your custom settings). in case it is present , delete or rename this file and restart firefox afterwards.
    for more information and other steps please also see: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]]

  • How do I stop the Xfinity Log in page from popping up?

    If I am near a xfinity hot spot, xfinity log in screen pops up on the screen of my iphone whenever I am checking emails or browsing on the internet.
    I am not subscribed to the service and I have no intention to subscribe either, it's quite annoying, because it keeps happening and I couldn't find a way to prevent it. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    I do not want to turn wifi on and off.  I think I may have fixed it by going to settings -> General-> Reset->Reset Network Settings.  This should hopefully make my phone forget all of the "known networks".  I will have to re-associate with the networks I use all the time but none of them are xfinity and I am hoping this keeps that very annoying xfinity screen away.

  • How do I stop the facebook log in page from opening multiple windows in my browser?

    When I boot up my computer and click on Chrome to open a window, multiple Facebook log in pages will open, each in a new tab. This is happening randomly. I will also often have some facebook photo URL trying to open - there's usually nothing on those pages. How can I stop this?

    Hi Lmax,
    You are clicking on Chrome, which is not a browser we support. If you are having this issue with Firefox, please change the tab settings in the Preferences/Options menu > General
    Try the Chrome support [https://support.google.com/chrome/?hl=en]

  • How do I stop the "drag firefox into the applications folder" dialog box from opening every time I open Firefox on my iMac?

    When I installed Firefox on my iMac, a dialog box appeared telling me to drag the Firefox logo into the Applications folder, which I did. Firefox works fine, but every time I open it this dialog box opens before Firefox does, and I have to close it out. This is irritating. How can I stop it from opening again?

    Make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.

  • How do I stop the annoying silverlight update notices?

    How do I stop the annoying silverlight update notices?

    hello, enter "about:config" into the location-bar of the browser, confirm the info dialog, then search for the preference named "plugins.hide_infobar_for_outdated_plugin" & double-click it in order to toggle it to "true".
    please note that firefox also won't support the ppc architecture any longer, however if you want to use an up-to-date browser based on firefox you can switch to "tenfourfox" , the downside would be: it doesn't support plugins at all - [[Firefox no longer works with Mac OS X 10.4 or PowerPC processors]]
